Now I Know Why My Blog is Better

OK all you bloggers everywhere: There are three things you should NOT blog about:
1. the headache you have
2. what you had for dinner last night
3. the fight you had with your boyfriend.
I just checked out some other, lamer blogs and see that people have not gotten the memo about WRITING SOMETHING THAT IS OF INTEREST TO OTHERS. Examples from three inferior blogs:
In other random updating-type news… I’m feeling better, the rash is starting to disappear, the fever is gone, so yay!
or
Weight this morning: on the digital scale:156; on the balance scale: 154. Who know which is more accurate, so maybe for a while I’ll use both.
or
My b-log is so BORING. Phil suggested that I make a cheese sandwich post, because I had a cheese sandwich for dinner last night. (I am going on a diet very soon.)
C’mooon people! So is it bad I posted something about socks? Is that boring? Does it help that I’m not wearing pants in the picture? Fuck.

I know we shouldn’t blog about what we had for dinner but I’m pretty sure it’s okay to do it on someone else’s blog and I had such a taste for figs last night! They are my favorite figs and I buy them at Greenwich Produce, where I find produce no better at a location quite grand and central! http://www.grandcentralterminal.com/pages/getpage.aspx?id=CE810FEB-7393-4BE5-9616-9DADE7A850D8

I hate when people blog about their meals, workouts, weight, cults, and children’s bowel habits. Pfft.
Thank heavens some of us know to avoid those topics!

Ooofa. Blog surfing is like that: a lot of the waves turn out to be bogus.
